Hi there, i've just rigged up my new technomate 2200 motor and 80cm dish and am having problems getting more than 3 or 4 sats next to each other.
If i align to 1w, i can get a couple of sats either side, but nothing else. Similarly, if i goto 19.2, align and tighten up, i can only get 13, & 28.2.
My pole is as near as damn it 100%, the dish is central to the motor etc.
I live in Reading, so have set my motor lat to 51, and set the box up with the right co-ords.
The dish and lnb I am using was given to me and i'm not sure what make it is. Both look v. cheap though. Also the dish has a very very small dent in it.
Could the dish / lnb be my problem? I read something about focal points for the lnb as well. Would this need to be established, and if so, how?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
